My Big Little Miracle

Well…here we go! I’ve got a pretty amazing story to tell. I’m brand new to blogging, though, so please be patient. The storytelling won’t be nearly as difficult for me as navigating this webpage, but I’ll get the hang of it!

My name is Carrie. I’m the baby in that picture. Those are my parents, Ruth and Charles. They adopted me in 1973 when I was three weeks old. Until last year, I didn’t know really anything about who and what brought me to them. This blog will be my means of telling the story of how I came to know that information, and so much more. I’ve been granted one miracle after the next, and I’ll never know why, but I am so very thankful.

Names and details will be changed/de-identified as needed, but the story will be the same. As this has unfolded, and time and time again since, I’m repeatedly told “this needs to be on TV/a movie!”, or “you need to write a book!”. Both of those seemed like more than I can take on, so blog it is! Please share the link, and I hope you enjoy the story. I’ll be busy writing the first post very soon!
